XMLimiter 2 —— 全球最透明、响度最高的主控峰值限制器

我们此前曾预告，XM 系列插件的“Pro”版本即将推出。

现在，它来了：XMLimiter 2 —— 当今市面上最透明、响度最高的主控峰值/硬限幅（Brickwall）限制器。

请注意！包含在“XM Mastering Bundle”套装中的免费版 XMLimiter 与 XMLimiter 2 是两款独立的产品，它们采用了完全不同的算法。

我们之所以称 XMLimiter 2 为“最透明的主控峰值/硬限幅限制器”，是有原因的。

XMLimiter 2 并非传统的“超前读取”（look-ahead）式限制器，它不依赖于“启动时间”（Attack）或“释放时间”（Release）这类时间常数参数。

相反，XMLimiter 2 就像侦探一样，时刻监测并分析着你的整个音频信号。

这种“原子级”的精细追踪，让我们实现了一个核心目标：在进行限制处理时，不会产生动态压缩感、立体声声场收窄、瞬态模糊或“抽吸效应”（pumping）……一切都保持极其透明的限制效果。

当然，我们也必须说明：根据音频素材的不同，产生一定的响应变化是在所难免的。例如，钢琴等独奏乐器可能会有不同的表现；某些 808 鼓声或超低音（sub-bass）素材可能处理得非常完美，而另一些则可能会出现失真。这完全取决于具体的音频素材。

不过，在测试阶段，参与测试的音频工程师们向我们反馈了一个重要发现：如果你将 XMLimiter 2 放在总线（Master）的末端作为最终限制器，且在提升音量至目标响度时听到了失真，那么问题很可能出在之前的混音阶段。

在这种情况下，我们建议在 XMLimiter 2 之前插入一个均衡器（EQ）进行必要的平衡调整。当然，你也可以根据自己的需求自由使用——一切由你决定。

OS（过采样）按钮
默认情况下，插件已开启 16 倍（x16）过采样。这种出色的滤波器类型是我们最新的技术成果之一。我们建议在进行母带处理（Mastering）时保持开启；若仅用于单轨处理，则可将其关闭。

在此阶段，插件具备 ISP（采样间峰值，Inter-Sample Peak）保护功能。至于 dBTP（基于采样间峰值的真实峰值电平），则属于另一种情况。我们不希望为了实现所谓的“真峰值”（True Peak）而牺牲信号的透明度，也不愿因此增加额外的处理负担。

FC 按钮
“FC”代表“最终上限”（Final Ceiling）级。如果您未使用串联限制（serial limiting），我们建议始终保持此功能开启，否则可能会出现峰值“漏网”的情况。

如果您正在使用串联限制，请将其关闭，让 XMLimiter 2 在信号链的中间环节发挥作用。

值得一提的是，FC 级非常独特。它是我们专为 XMLimiter 2 开发的，旨在捕捉并抑制过冲（overshoot）。

LINK 按钮
LINK 按钮位于两个旋钮之间。启用后，它允许您同时以相反方向调节“输入”（Input）和“输出”（Output）旋钮，从而帮助您保持整体电平的平衡。

XMLimiter 2 – The World’s Most Transparent and Loudest Mastering Peak Limiter

We previously mentioned that “Pro” versions of the plugins in the XM family were on the way.

Now, here it is: XMLimiter 2 — the most transparent and loudest mastering peak/brickwall limiter currently available.

Attention! XMLimiter, the Free version included in the XM Mastering Bundle, and XMLimiter 2 are two separate products with completely different algorithms.

There is a reason we call XMLimiter 2 the “Most Transparent Mastering Peak/Brickwall Limiter.”

XMLimiter 2 is not a classic look-ahead limiter. It does not rely on time-constant parameters such as Attack or Release.

Instead, XMLimiter 2 watches and reads your entire signal like a detective — at every single moment.

This atomic-level tracking allowed us to achieve one thing above all else: no sense of dynamic suppression, no stereo narrowing, no transient smearing, no pumping… Just transparent limiting.

That said, we should be clear: depending on the source material, some reaction is unavoidable. For example, certain solo instruments such as piano may respond differently. Some of your 808s or sub-bass instruments may work perfectly, while others may distort. This depends entirely on the material.

However, the feedback we received from the audio engineers who supported us during the beta phase helped us realize something important: if you place XMLimiter 2 as the final limiter on your master output and you hear distortion at certain points while pushing to your desired level, then there is likely a problem in your mixing stage.

In that case, we recommend placing an EQ right before XMLimiter 2 and applying the necessary balancing. Or use it however you want — the choice is yours.

OS Button
By default, x16 oversampling is enabled. This outstanding filter type is one of our latest technologies. We recommend keeping it enabled during mastering. For individual tracks, it can remain disabled.

At this stage, ISP — Inter-Sample Peak — protection is maintained. However, dBTP is a different matter. We did not want to compromise signal transparency or add extra processing load in the name of “True Peak.”

FC Button
FC stands for the Final Ceiling stage. If you are not using serial limiting, we recommend keeping it enabled at all times. Otherwise, peak points may escape.

If you are using serial limiting, disable it and let XMLimiter 2 do its job within the intermediate signal chain.

But we should also point out that the FC stage is unique. We developed it specifically for XMLimiter 2. It is designed to catch overshoots.

LINK Button
The LINK button is located between the two knobs. When enabled, LINK allows you to adjust the Input and Output knobs in opposite directions at the same time, helping you maintain a balanced overall level.
